Inside The Dish - Parkes CSIRO Radio Telescope tour

A behind the scenes tour under, inside and on 'The Dish' - the CSIRO Radio Telescope in Parkes NSW. See how scientists are searching for alien life, how radio signals are received and processed, and see The Dish moving up close.

Thanks to CSIRO and Operations Scientist John Sarkissian for a really entertaining and informative all access tour to learn more about the amazing radio telescope. It's worth a trip to Parkes in New South Wales to see The Dish alone.

This video was filmed during my 7 day epic adventure flying solo from Moorabbin Airport to Longreach, the home of Qantas, and back. Check out the Interview with John about the Apollo 11 mission here:    • Moorabbin to Parkes 'The Dish' - Long...
